Abstract
This paper traces research and development in the field of lubrication technology for various mechanical elements. Japan is now in the process of developing the Japanese experimental module (JEM), one component of the US Space Station. This paper therefore emphasizes results relating to mechanical elements that will appear in JEM mechanisms. Methods of lubricating ball-bearings, sliding bearings, ball screws and gears for space use are described and some test results are given.
